    Nice video! I know i'm like 8 years late, but how are things going?

    Put a solid wire in the middle of the die so the inside of the bend is bent in. This will allow a better bend. Heat it with a propane torch will help also. I bend small & thin to large & heavy without a problem with the same bender.
    Good luck.
    Almost forgot...if you can find square solid rubber strips, insert in tubing...that reduces deformation.

      yes, one can also melt a special low temp lead alloy in the tube and it makes the tube solid. afterwards melt it out by putting in boiling water.

    Can you send that channel the other way? With the open end on the side of the bend?

    • @khandam7709

      no as the video shows it kinks up.

    This is very Helpful.. I was interested in bending some 1 1/4" square alum with some type of bender at about 30 degrees.. and I suppose it won't work based on your video. at what angle would the square tubing crack? 45 degrees? Great video.. thanks!

      it depends on how smooth of a bend you want. If you put a 5" radius die in their from a dumbell set and annealed the metal I'm pretty sure you could get 30 degrees, but not anymore. It also depends on the thickness of the tube wall 1/8" will bend more than 1/16"

    the tubing material broke because its hardened aluminum, 6061-T6; the sheet/flat bar metal is 5052, usually in the O temper

      no that is all 6063 alloy aluminum. 6061 t6 extrusions are not available typically in any thickness less than 1/8". sure you can probably get it special order for a lot of $$$$, but for almost all normal cases this is true.

    Thank you so much for the video. It was informative. I've been noticing people mentioning Swag Off Road. They sell modified dies for the tube roller and I believe for this machine as well.
    Am wondering if you've checked into those dies yet?
